Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)and acupuncture therapy in the treatment of chronic insomnia disorder(CID)patients.Methods A total of 80 patients with CID,who were treated at Nanchang First Hospital from January 2022 to December 2023,were selected for the study.The patients were randomly divided into control group and treatment group,with 40 cases in each group.The control group patients were treated with dexmedetomidine,while the treatment group patients received rTMS and acupuncture therapy in addition to control group.The treatment course was 4 weeks,and the sleep quality,sleep related indicators,and psychological condition improvement of both groups of patients were observed before and after treatment.Results After treatment,the Pittsburgh sleep quality index scores of both groups of patients decreased(P＜0.05);The sleep latency and number of awakenings were lower than before treatment(P＜0.05),and the total sleep time,sleep efficiency,and proportion of rapid eye movement sleep were higher than before treatment,treatment group showed more significant improvement than control group(P＜0.05).After treatment,the Hamilton anxiety and depression scale scores of both groups of patients decreased compared to before treatment,but there was no statistically significant difference in control group before and after treatment(P＞0.05).However,there was a statistically significant difference in treatment group before and after treatment(P＜0.05).Conclusion The combination of rTMS and acupuncture treatment can significantly improve the sleep quality of CID patients,while also reducing the accompanying symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Objective:To analyze the prenatal clinical phenotypes and pregnancy outcomes of fetuses with 22q11.21 microdeletion and microduplication syndrome to provide a basis for clinical genetic counseling.Methods:This retrospective study involved the cases diagnosed with 22q11.21 microdeletion or microduplication by chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) due to abnormal ultrasound findings, advanced maternal age, or high-risk pregnancies indicated by serum screening in the Prenatal Diagnosis Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from January 2015 to January 2022. Clinical phenotypes and pregnancy outcomes of the fetuses were analyzed and described.Results:Among 9 141 cases referred for CMA during the study period, 77 cases (0.8%) were diagnosed as 22q11.21 microdeletion or microduplication, including 62 (80.5%) with 22q11.21 microdeletion and 15 (19.5%) with microduplication. In the 22q11.21 microdeletion cases, 58 had typical deletion, and four had atypical deletions, but all fetuses carried TBX1 gene that was clearly associated with congenital heart disease. The 15 fetuses with 22q11.21 microduplication including 14 in the typical region and one in the atypical region. Forty-eight (77.4%) out of the 62 fetuses with 22q11.21 microdeletion were complicated by congenital heart defects, including 28 with conotruncal defects. Five of the 15 fetuses with 22q11.21 microduplication were complicated by congenital heart defects. The cases were followed up on telephone at three to six months after the expected date of delivery. Among the 62 cases with 22q11.21 microdeletion, 52 terminated pregnancies, five were lost to follow-up, and five were delivered (one died after one month of premature delivery, one was born with anal advancement and growth retardation, and three were followed up without obvious abnormality). Among the 15 cases with 22q11.21 microduplication, four terminated pregnancies, two were lost to follow-up, and nine gave birth (eight were followed up without obvious abnormality, one grew slowly). Conclusions:The application of CMA in the prenatal diagnosis of 22q11.21 microdeletion and microduplication fetuses, and the comprehensive analysis of clinical manifestations and pregnancy outcome combined with ultrasonic diagnosis are of great significance in guiding the treatment and rehabilitation after birth of an affected child. Genetic counseling for cases with 22q11.21 microdeletion and microduplication syndrome should be cautious and consider ultrasound findings.

Objective: To investigate the ameliorative effects of Mushroom on adipose tissue inflammation and glucolipid metabolism in mice fed a high-fat diet, and to provide a theoretical basis for the mechanisms of Mushroom regulating glucolipid metabolism and inflammatory responses. Methods: C57 BL/6 J mice were fed with normal diet(LF) group, high-fat diet(HF)group and high-fat diet + Mushroom(HF+Mushroom) group for 15 weeks.Then, body weight subcutaneous and epididymal white adipose tissue weight were measured. The morphological changes of adipose tissues were compared by HE staining, and the expression of genes related to inflamation, glycolysis and fatty acid oxidation pathways were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. Results: Compared with the LF group, the HF group had increased body weight, increased subcutaneous and epididymal white fat weight and adipocyte size, and upregulated expression of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-6(IL-6), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1), CD68, inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS), pyruvate kinase(PK), phosphofructokinase(PFK), hypoxia inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α) and peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha(PPARα) in adipose tissues, while the expression of carnitine palmitoyl transferase-1 A(CPT-1 A), cytochrome P450 4 a10(CYP4 a10) and medium-chain acyl-coenzyme a dehydrogenase(MCAD) were downregulated(P<0.05). Compared with the HF group, Mushroom supplementation reduced body weight, adipose tissue weight and adipocyte size, and downregulated the expression of pro-inflammatory factors and glycolytic pathway-related factors in adipose tissues, while the expression of fatty acid oxidation pathway-related factors were upregulated(P<0.05). Conclusion Mushroom can ameliorate inflammation and disorders of glycolipid metabolism in adipose tissues of obese mice.

Objective: To analyze the diagnostic value of ultrasound guided 14 gauge coreneedle biopsy (US-CNB) in breast nodules. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the pathological results of US-CNB and surgical excision from 373 breast nodules in Peking University International Hospital from Sep 2016 to Nov 2018 to evaluate the accuracy of 14g US-CNB. Results: A total of 349 patients(373 nodules)underwent US-CNB. US-CNB reported 282 benign lesions(75.6%, 282/373), 20 high-risklesions(5.4%, 20/373), and 71 malignant lesions(19.0%, 71/373). For 282 CNB reported benign lesions, the surgical pathology confirmed 235 lesions , 46 for high-risk lesions and 1 for malignant lesion with a concordancy of 83.3%(235/282)and the underestimation rate was 16.7%(47/282). US-CNB identified 20 high-risk lesions. According to surgical results, 15 were high-risk lesions and 5 were malignant lesions with a concordancy of 75% (15/20)and the underestimation rate was 25%(5/20). When it comes to malignant lesions, the excision results showed that 70 were malignant lesions and 1was high-risk lesion with a concordancy of 98.6%(70/71)and the overestimation rate was 1.4%(1/71). The concordance of the histological type , calculated for 50 invasive carcinomas, was 92% (46/50) with a kappa value of 0.77.The concordance of the histological grade could be calculated for 38 invasive ductal carcinomas with the Elston-Elllis Method . It was 89.5% (34/38) with a kappa value of 0.57. Conclusions The pathology result of 14gUS-CNB is in good consistency with surgical excision for breast benign and malignant lesions.

Objective To evaluate the performance of Xpert C. difficile multiplex real-time PCR assay for diagnosis of Clostridium difficile infections in Chinese hospital settings. Methods This study was performed in Huashan Hospital, Ruijin Hospital, Beijing Hospital, Nanfang Hospital and Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital using a standard study protocol. Unique unformed stools from patients with acute hospital-acquired diarrhea were simultaneously analyzed by toxigenic anaerobic cultures and the Xpert C. difficile assay. All specimens displaying discordant results between the Xpert assay and toxigenic culture were sent for Sanger tcdB gene sequencing. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), total concordance rate, and 95％ confidence interval (CI) were calculated before and after resolution of discordant results using SAS 9.3. Results A total of 745 stool specimens were collected and 46 were excluded due to failure of C. difficile recovery. The remaining 699 specimens were included. Compared to the results of toxigenic culture, the sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV of Xpert C. difficile assay were 94.1％ (144/153)(95％CI:89.1％-97.3％), 93.2％ (509/546)(95％CI:96.7％-99.2％), 79.6％ (144/181)(95％CI:72.9％-85.2％)and 98.3％ (509 / 518) (95％CI: 96.7％-99.2％), respectively. Both methods had a Kappa of 0.819. Xpert C. difficile assay showed sensitivity of 98.4％(62/63) (95％ CI: 90.3％-99.9％) and specificity of 93.2％(509/546) (95％ CI: 90.8％-95.2％) for toxin A-negative toxin B-positive strains. After the discordant results resolved by tcdB gene sequencing, PCR assay provided better performance with high sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value [98.8％ (171 / 173), 98.1％ (516 / 526), 94.5％ (171/181) and 99.6％ (516/518), respectively]. Conclusions Compared to the results of toxigenic culture, the sensitivity, specificity and NPV of Xpert C. difficile assay were 94.1％ (144/153) and 93.2％(509/546), respectively. With the results available within 1 h, Xpert C. difficile assay provides prompt and precise laboratory diagnosis in Chinese clinical settings.

Objective: To probe into the correlation between chronic liver disease and intestinal barrier function. Methods: 1 491 cases of hospitalized patients were enrolled, of which 741 cases were of chronic liver diseases, including 397 cases of fatty liver diseases, 230 cases of chronic hepatitis, 114 cases of liver cirrhosis, and 750 cases of non-hepatic diseases. All admitted patients’ intestinal barrier function like diamine oxidase (DAO), D-lactate, lipopolysaccharide, and biochemical indicators of liver functions were tested. According to different data, statistical analysis was done using t-test, ANOVA, Dunnett’s test, χ ² test of fourfold table, Pearson’s correlation, and binary logistic regression. Results: The intestinal barrier dysfunction was more likely to occur in the chronic liver disease group than that of non-hepatic disease group [54.15% (379/741) vs. 18.53% (139/750), χ ² = 193.58, P < 0.001]. The correlation analysis between biochemical indicators of liver function and intestinal barrier function in chronic liver disease group showed that alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT), and total bilirubin levels were more susceptible to intestinal barrier dysfunction than those with normal indexes (P < 0.05 ). GGT had stimulated DAO (P < 0.05, OR > 1), D-lactate (P < 0.05, OR > 1), lipopolysaccharide (P < 0.05, OR > 1), ALT and AST. Conclusion Chronic liver disease increases with damage to intestinal barrier function.
